≥The front and surround speakers are the same. Use those you have connected the short cords to as front speakers and those you have

connected the long cords to as surround speakers.

≥Place the front, center, and surround speakers at approximately the same distance from the seating position. The angles in the diagram are

approximate.

≥Use only supplied speakers

Using other speakers can damage the unit and sound quality will be negatively affected.

≥Set the speakers up on an even surface to prevent them from

falling. Take proper precautions to prevent the speakers from falling if you cannot set them up on an even surface.

Positioning for best effect

How you set up your speakers can affect the bass and the sound field. Note the following points.

≥Place speakers on flat secure bases. ≥Placing speakers too close to floors, walls, and corners can result

in excessive bass. Cover walls and windows with thick curtain.

Caution

Hold the speakers by the sides. Applying pressure to the front net can damage the speaker.

Note

Keep your speakers at least 10 mm ( for proper ventilation.

≥You can also put this speaker directly under the television. ≥Vibration caused by the center speaker can disrupt the picture if it

is placed directly on the television. Put the center speaker on a rack or shelf.

Subwoofer

Place to the right of the television, on the floor or a sturdy shelf so that it won’t cause vibration. Leave 10 cm (4q) on the right for the woofer to be effective. Leave 10 cm (4q) at the rear for ventilation.

noise from FM broadcasts, or continuous signals from an

oscillator, test disc, or electronic instrument. –When adjusting the sound quality. –When turning the unit on or off.

If irregular coloring occurs on your television

These speakers are designed to be used close to a television, but the picture may be affected with some televisions and setup combinations.

If this occurs, turn the television off for about 30 minutes.

The television’s demagnetizing function should correct the problem. If it persists, move the speakers further away from the television.

Attach the stands with these holes.

This remote control can also operate some other brands of televisions and video cassette recorders. Change the code to operate such equipment and some Panasonic products.

While aiming the remote control at the equipment,

Press and hold [TV] or [VCR],

Press a numbered button to enter the first digit,

Press a numbered button to enter the second digit.

The remote control outputs the on/off signal. If the code is correct, the equipment turns on or off. If it doesn’t, try entering another code.

Glossary

Decoder

A decoder restores the coded audio signals on DVDs to normal. This is called decoding.

Dolby Digital

This is a method of coding digital signals developed by Dolby Laboratories. Apart from stereo (2-channel) audio, these signals can also be multi-channel audio. A large amount of audio information can be recorded on one disc using this method.

DTS (Digital Theater Systems)

This surround system is used in many movie theaters around the world. There is good separation between the channels, so realistic sound effects are possible.

Dynamic range

Dynamic range is the difference between the lowest level of sound that can be heard above the noise of the equipment and the highest level of sound before distortion occurs.

Film and video

DVD-Videos are recorded using either film or video. Usually, film is recorded at 24 frames per second, the rate movies are filmed at, while video is recorded at 30 frames per second.

Frame still and field still

Frames are the still pictures that go together to make a moving picture. There are about 30 frames shown each second. One frame is made up of two fields. A regular television shows these fields one after the other to create frames. A still is shown when you pause a moving picture. A frame still is made up of two alternating fields, so the picture may appear blurred, but overall quality is high. A field still is not blurred, but it has only half the information of a frame still so picture quality is lower.

Interlace and progressive output

NTSC, the video signal standard, has 480 interlaced (I) scan lines, whereas progressive scanning uses twice the number of scan lines. This is called 480P. The video signals output from this unit’s COMPONENT VIDEO OUT terminals (Y, P

B, PR) allow you to enjoy

higher quality pictures than if the signals were output from the VIDEO OUT terminal or S-VIDEO OUT terminal.

I/P/B

MPEG 2, the video compression standard adopted for use with DVD-Video, codes frames using these 3 picture types. I: Intra coded picture

This picture has the best quality and is the best to use when adjusting the picture.

P: Predictive coded picture

This picture is calculated based on past I or P-pictures.

B: Bidirectionally-predictive coded picture

This picture is calculated by comparing past and future I and P-pictures so it has the lowest volume of information.

Linear PCM (pulse code modulation)

These are uncompressed digital signals, similar to those found on CDs.

Playback control (PBC)

If a Video CD has playback control, you can select scenes and information with menus.

WMA, MP3, CD text and JPEG information

≥Discs must conform to ISO9660 level 1 or 2 (except for extended

formats).

≥This unit is compatible with multi-session but if there are a lot of

sessions it takes more time for play to start. Keep the number of sessions to a minimum to avoid this.

≥The order tracks appear in the menus may differ to the order shown

on your computer.

[WMA]

≥Noise may occur when playing WMA files. ≥You cannot play WMA files that are copy protected.

[MP3]

≥This unit is not compatible with ID3 tags. ≥If you play an MP3 track that includes still picture data, it will take

some time before the music itself starts playing and the elapsed time will not be displayed during this time. Even after the track starts, the correct play time will not be displayed.

[JPEG]

≥To view JPEG files on this unit: — Take them on a digital camera that meets the DCF (Design rule

for Camera File System) standard. Some digital cameras have functions that are not supported by the DCF standard like automatic picture rotation which may render a picture unviewable.

— Do not alter the files in any way or save them under a different

name.

≥This unit cannot display moving pictures, Motion JPEG and other

such formats, still pictures other than JPEG (i.e. TIFF) or play associated sound.

When making your own CD text discs

The unit plays the tracks in the order you record them so you do not have to prefix the titles with numbers.

WMA is a compression format developed by Microsoft Corporation. It achieves the same sound quality as MP3 with a file size that is smaller than that of MP3.

MPEG Layer-3 audio decoding technology licensed from Fraunhofer IIS and Thomson multimedia.

Naming folders and files

Prefix folder and file names with 3-digit numbers in the order you want to play them.

Extension

004track.wma

(or .WMA)

The extension for MP3 is “.mp3” or “.MP3”. The extension for JPEG is “.JPG”,

Listening caution

EST. 1924

Selecting fine audio equipment such as the unit you’ve just purchased is only the start of your musical enjoyment. Now it’s time to consider how you can maximize the fun and excitement your equipment offers. This manufacturer and the Electronic Industries Association’s Consumer Electronics Group want you to get the most out of your equipment by playing it at a safe level. One that lets the sound come through loud and clear without annoying blaring or distortion—and, most importantly, without affecting your sensitive hearing.

We recommend that you avoid prolonged exposure to excessive noise.

Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing “comfort level” adapts to higher volumes of sound. So what sounds “normal” can actually be loud and harmful to your hearing. Guard against this by setting your equipment at a safe level BEFORE your hearing adapts. To establish a safe level:

≥Start your volume control at a low setting. ≥Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfor tably and clearly, and without distortion.

Once you have established a comfortable sound level: ≥Set the dial and leave it there.

Taking a minute to do this now will help to prevent hearing damage or loss in the future. After all, we want you listening for a lifetime.

This product may receive radio interference caused by mobile telephones during use. If such interference is apparent, please increase separation between the product and the mobile telephone.
